If there's any reason we think they can't co-exist together, it's because for a series of time we had that dumbass Pringles man as coach, who had no idea how to adjust his system to any damn person ever, instead forcing superstars with elite skillsets to adjust to his system which has never even won a championship and hell has never been effective without a future HOF point guard running it.

The key thing here to remember is that Woody isn't really using his own offensive sets, he's using D'Antoni's, he's just found a way to integrate Carmelo into them. If he can find a way to make Carmelo effective in an offense centered around the pick and roll, then he can find a way to make Amar'e effective in that offense too, especially cause there are few PFs in the league better in the pick and roll than Amar'e Stoudemire.

Amare is a ridiculously dominant PnR big man and Melo can be waiting on the perimeter for the jumper as a back up, was against lesser opposition but anyone see how that worked out in the olympics

Amare

I think there is less of a problem with Melo and Amare' together than with Chandler and Amare' together. Amare' is going tohave to pick up his defense, particularly when Chanlder is not on the floor. But I agree with FatElvis's thought that Amare' and Wallace, who is a three point threat, could be a great tandem.

Once we are fully healthy, we will have a lot of effective combinations.

Amare should play most of his minutes with Camby and Sheed when and if they come back, much better fits imo.

Amare Returns TONIGHT!!!

New York Knicks forward Amar'e Stoudemire will make his season debut on Tuesday against Portland, league source tells Y! Sports.

After undergoing preseason knee surgery, New York Knicks All-Star forward Amar'e Stoudemirewill make his season debut on Tuesday night against the Portland Trail Blazers, a league source told Yahoo! Sports.

Amar'e Stoudemire takes a practice shot before the Knicks' home game vs. the Lakers on Dec. 13. (AP).
>Whether or not Carmelo Anthony returns from his hyper-extended knee on Tuesday, the plan remains for Stoudemire to come off the Knicks' bench. Anthony told reporters that he will test his knee in pre-game on Tuesday and then make a determination on returning to the lineup.

Stoudemire, 30, has been one of the NBA's elite power forwards and had come into training camp believing he had worked himself into the best shape of his professional career. Nevertheless, Stoudemire suffered a knee injury in October, underwent surgery on Oct. 21 and has been rehabbing the injury most recently in practices with the Knicks' D-League franchise in Erie and finally with the Knicks.

"We need him," Anthony told Yahoo! Sports' Marc Spears on Friday. "I know we are playing well, but the more bodies, the better, especially at this point where guys are doing well. We are ready for him."

The Knicks are 21-9, leaders in the Atlantic Division and a half-game behind the Miami Heat for the best record in the Eastern Conference.

Happy New Year Everyone
Make this da year to remember being a Winner ....

1/1 I'm looking foward to the return of Amare without Melo & Felton in the rotation ..
I already picture the first game with Jason Kidd performance explaining to Amare vs Portland, that Kidd's body is to old to play the SSOL running game for over 20 minutes per game.
PG-Pablo pick n roll with Copeland will be practice alot with Amare vs Portland.

1/3 The Knicks vs Spurs Headcoach Pop ..
the NBA top best offense/defense GELLIN headcoach the last 6 seasons are "Pop" the Spurs will bring back old-memories to Amare.

1/5 The Knicks vs Magic should be the game we see alot of the low-post moves Olyjuwon taught to Amare in the offseason ..
PG-Pablo posting-up Amare quickness down-low and Tyson strength down-low ..
with JR, Novak, and Kidd peremeter shooting killing Orlando in the 3rd quarter.

I have no-faith in the two $100M animosity-boys and Tyson in the same lineup ..
unless Big-Daddy Jason Kidd is in the lineup too.
Amare & Melo remind me of two Baby-daddies who keep bumbing heads everyweek when they visit their Baby-Mama house .. the stare-down are enough to KILL.

I am a man of little faith when it comes to Amar'e. This, to me, is just an excuse. Pass off the blame and you pass off the heat.

Yeah, really. Admit you didn't try, and move forward. Too many times he didn't try, and he could have asked for helped outside of the coaches he had. Olajuwon wasn't his coach, but he asked him for help.

Come on, Amar'e. If you've turned it around, great, just don't make excuses.

Precisely. Pride, you would think, should have him aiming for better results as a defensive player. Instead he makes excuses that take the focus off his game, and passes the onus on to others for his shortcomings.
